[Verse]
Gbm
My friends I stand before you
A
To tell a truth most dire
Fb D
There lurks a traitor in our midsts
C#
Who has invoked the captain’s ire
Gbm
He don’t deserve no mercy
A
We ought to shoot him with a gun
Fb D
But I am not an evil man
C#
So first lets have a little fun
[Pre-Chorus]
Gbm Fb
We’ll tie that scoundrel to a rope and throw him overboard
D
Drag him underneath the ship
C#
F terrifying deadly trip
[Chorus]
Gbm D
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Fb A
Send him down to the depths below
Gbm D
Make that bastard walk the plank
A Fb Cb G# Gb F Gb (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
[Verse]
Gbm
I will not say what he has done
A
His sins are far too grave to tell
Fb D
It’s not my place to judge a man
C#
But for them he will burn in hell
Gbm
The sharks will dine upon his flesh
A
And Davy Jones will have his soul
Fb D
Take his money and his hat
C#
He won’t need them where he’s gonna go
[Pre-Chorus]
Gbm Fb
But first lets tie him to a rope and throw him overboard
D
Drag him underneath the ship
C#
F terrifying deadly trip
[Chorus]
Gbm D
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Fb A
Send him down to the depths below
Gbm D
Make that bastard walk the plank
A Fb Cb G# Gb F Gb (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
Then play the last line again to end the song
